    We loved its location and enjoyed watching wildlife and boats on the canal. There are a few good places to eat and shop within the village and interesting places to visit if you travel a little further than that. Thank you for our welcome gifts and our fabulous little holiday!

    Nice to find tea, coffee and milk on arrival. Lovely pub nearby. Don't recall seeing in the listing the hot tub automatically turns off at 9pm but it wasn't an issue for us.

  • Lee

    The owners were very attentive with texts before our stay and meeting us at the property to show us how everything worked. Could not recommend this place enough
